USDT AML Check
Run an AML check on any USDT address โ TRC-20 or ERC-20. Blacklist status, sanctions screening, mixer exposure and counterparty risk in a single lookup.
ETH & TRON: blacklist + sanctions check. BTC: sanctions only.
Live on-chain data from the official USDT & USDC contracts on TRON and Ethereum, updated continuously.
How It Works
Paste any USDT address โ TRON (Tโฆ) or Ethereum (0xโฆ). The network is detected automatically.
We screen it against the on-chain blacklist, the sanctions lists, and the funding sources in its transaction history.
You get a risk score with the reasons behind it: blacklist hits, sanctioned counterparties, mixer and darknet exposure, and how many hops away each risk sits.
Features
Sanctions Screening
Every address is checked against OFAC SDN, the Israeli NBCTF seizure lists and UK OFSI โ not only the Tether and Circle blacklists.
Fund-Source Tracing
We follow the transaction graph back through several hops to find exposure to mixers, darknet markets, scam wallets and sanctioned entities, and report how far away each risk sits.
Counterparty Risk
See whether the wallets an address transacts with are themselves frozen or sanctioned โ often the earliest warning that an address is heading for a freeze.
Reports and API
Download a PDF AML report for compliance files, or call the API to screen addresses programmatically before accepting a payment.
Why Run an AML Check on USDT?
Receiving tainted USDT is not a neutral event. Tether and Circle can freeze the tokens on any address, and funds that arrived from a wallet later designated as criminal can put your own balance under scrutiny. An AML check before you accept a payment is far cheaper than untangling one afterwards.
The distinction that matters is timing. A blacklist check tells you the situation as it stands right now; an AML check estimates where it is heading. Most addresses that get frozen were traceably connected to sanctioned or mixed funds well before the freeze transaction landed.
This matters most to OTC desks, payment processors, exchanges and merchants โ anyone who accepts USDT from counterparties they did not choose. For occasional checks, use the form above. For volume, the ChainSentry bot and the API return the same risk score programmatically.
An AML check is a risk signal, not a legal verdict. We show the evidence behind every score โ which lists matched, which counterparties are flagged, how many hops away the exposure sits โ so the decision stays yours.
